Black or White

Is Michael Jackson black or white? If you asked someone that didn't know who he was, their response would most likely be he's white based upon the color of his skin. Color plays a drastic role in society; especially the way people perceive others. If you saw a dark colored person walking down the street you would start narrowing down the options. Is he/she Nigerian, Indian, African? But what if in reality he/she was actually Hispanic. There you would be stereo-typing a human being. To be quite honest, all of us are racist. Of course some more than others, but we all judge, we all question, and we all assume. What we should get out of this is that skin is only color deep.. What the person's all about is really what counts in the end.
